Description

Hiawatha is an advanced and secure web server for Unix. It has been written with 'being secure' as its main goal. Hiawatha has many security features that no other web server has. Besides being very secure, it's also a very fast web server. It's twice as fast as Apache for static content. It supports load-balanced FastCGI, which makes it fast and scalable for serving CGI.
